Telos Corporation's reported carbon emissions

In 2018, Telos Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 18,200,580 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,177,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, primarily related to purchased electricity, and 16,600,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompasses downstream transportation and distribution. Notably, there were no reported Scope 1 emissions, indicating that the company did not have direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Despite the absence of specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments, Telos Corporation's emissions data reflects a significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly in their supply chain and distribution processes. The company has not publicly committed to any science-based targets or specific climate pledges, which may suggest an opportunity for future engagement in sustainability practices. Overall, while Telos Corporation has made strides in understanding its carbon footprint, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights a potential area for growth in their climate commitments.
